Milorganite is an all-purpose slow-release nitrogen fertilizer that can be used safely on lawns, flowers, vegetables, shrubs, and trees, as well as a carrier when spreading grass seed.
One 32 lb. bag covers 2,500 sq ft and feeds for up to 8-10 weeks. Milorganite is composed of heat-dried microbes that have digested the organic matter in wastewater.

- Slow-Release Nitrogen - Feeds plants gradually over 8–10 weeks, reducing the risk of burning and providing consistent, even growth without the "feast or famine" cycle of quick-release fertilizers.
- Won't Burn - Because nitrogen is released slowly, it won't burn lawns or plants even if over-applied or used in hot, dry conditions — a major advantage over synthetic fertilizers.
- Non-Leaching - Nutrients stay in the soil and aren't washed away by rain or irrigation, making it more efficient and environmentally friendly.
- Iron Content - Contains about 4% iron, which promotes a deep, rich green color without excessive growth spurts.
- Safe & Low-Maintenance - No need to water it in immediately after application. It activates when soil conditions are right (moisture + microbial activity), making timing more forgiving.
- Versatile Use - Suitable for lawns, trees, shrubs, flowers, vegetables, and more — an all-purpose product.
- Organic-Based / Biosolid Origin - Appealing to environmentally conscious consumers; it recycles nutrients from an organic process rather than relying solely on synthetic chemicals.
- Long Shelf Life - Doesn't expire or degrade when stored properly, unlike some liquid fertilizers. Always keep milorganite dry and under cover.
- Established Brand & Trust - Nearly 100 years on the market with a loyal following — one of the most recognized fertilizer brands in the U.S.
- Deer Repellent Effect - Anecdotally, many users report that the scent deters deer and other animals from treated areas, adding an unexpected bonus benefit. Sonnet 4.6Extended
